| Uggh. The rot scarab swarm (regular mini) was painted about as well as can be expected. The coloring was great.
Have you seen the repaint (either picture or in person)? | |

| | It is reddish orange, similar to the color the Demonweb Swarm is. Unimpressive at best. | |

That's not very good at all. If it wasn't for the difference in colour, they could really be substituted for one another. So, then they go and make a repaint of one to be similar to the other. | |

What does this mean? Have some prize kits actually contained different epic cards? | |

Yep. By forum reports it looks like WoTC are putting in whatever older epic cards are handy.

| The really annoying thing about the Rot Scarab Swarm promo mini is that you need 4 of the promos to actually use them in your RPG game. Otherwise you just end up with a swarm that has 1/4 of it painted in a different colour to the other 3/4 of it!  Olaf the Stout | |

| | No, not Dave, he saved my butt at GenCon. But, yes, a few more Raistlin epics would be nice before we go to 2.0. | |

An orange/red-ish swarm mini would be a good way to mark which square of the swarm used to have a PC in it

| Its decisions like this, that have been contributing to the decline of my skirmish participation lately. It doesn't do much to increase my enthusiasm for DDM 2.0 and 4th ed D&D either.
WotC really need to do better to keep us as loyal customers. I say the stores should return the kits and let them know their customers are fed up with it. | |
